Given that f(x) and its inverse, f^−1(x), are differentiable functions with f(x) and f'(x) values at x= 2, x = 4, and x = 6 as indicated in the table, find the derivative of f^−1(x) at x = 4. Show all your work.

Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
By definition of inverse functions:
f(f⁻¹(x)) = x
Take derivative using chain rule:
f'(f⁻¹(x)) (f⁻¹(x))' = 1
(f⁻¹(x))' = 1 / f'(f⁻¹(x))
Evaluate at x=4:
(f⁻¹(4))' = 1 / f'(f⁻¹(4))
(f⁻¹(4))' = 1 / f'(6)
(f⁻¹(4))' = 1 / 2
Answer:
½
Step-by-step explanation:
f(4) = 2
(f^-1)(4) = 6
Because f(6) = 4
f((f^-1)(x)) = x
[f((f^-1)(x))]' = f'(f^-1(x)) × (f^-1(x))'
(x)' = f'(f^-1(x)) × (f^-1(x))'
1 = f'(f^-1(x)) × (f^-1(x))'
At x = 4
1 = f'(6) × (f^-1(4))'
1 = 2 × (f^-1(4))'
(f^-1(4))' = ½
